SSS Awakening: Rebirth of the Strongest Vampire God novel Chapter 358

Chapter 358: This is what a Lord deserves

When Damon felt as if he was far enough, he directly used the system skill of the Blood Hall’s Lord and teleported to the Blood Hall from the great plains.

In the blink of an eye, the grassy plains, the suffocating tension, and Aiden’s maddening smile vanished. The world folded in on itself until Damon’s boots struck the polished obsidian floor of his Blood Hall once more.

He exhaled slowly, his crimson gaze narrowing. On his interface, the number 2,500,000,000 shone like a mountain of gold, the proof that the trade had succeeded. He had actually expected this meet-up to be a lot more chaotic, but this was... different.

Damon stared silently at nothing in particular and then shook himself like a dog that just got out of water. "Fuck. That bastard is really something." He once again tried to shake off that creepy feeling clinging to his skin, but there was no denying it.

Just who the hell was the guy? 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Erin, who had been idly twirling her hair in the corner of the chamber, perked up immediately. Her eyes lit up on seeing Damon return, and she immediately rushed over to him. Seeing that he was not in the best mood, she quickly suggested. "Might I serve my Lord with a gentle, relaxing massage?"

"Huh?" Damon looked at her in confusion. Since when did draconic snakes offer massages as if it were the most natural thing for them to do?

His gaze then swept across the room, falling on two other figures who were waiting for him. One was Kael, and the other was the idiot whom he hadn’t seen in a while. Riven.

One look at Riven’s awkward and sheepish face, Damon could instantly tell who was responsible for teaching Erin about massages.

But he did not reject the offer. After hours of training and what he had just gone through, he deserved a good massage and a few minutes of relaxation. He ignored the idiot trying to hide his face away from him and nodded at Erin.

"Let’s do it. I think there should be a bed and bath here somewhere."

Kael quickly stepped forward and filled in on the details. "There is, my Lord. A chamber was prepared for you the moment you claimed this Hall. Bathing pools, heated stone beds, and a resting alcove, all at your disposal. I’ll guide you there."

Erin immediately brightened, her blue-green eyes shimmering with delight at being given the chance. She slipped to Damon’s side, practically skipping with eagerness.

"Then allow me, my Lord. I will ensure your every muscle is loosened, every ounce of fatigue banished. By the time I’m finished, you’ll feel reborn!" The way she said it sounded less like an offer of comfort and more like a gleeful promise of torment.

Meanwhile, Riven coughed awkwardly and scratched the back of his neck, deliberately turning his face away. Damon ignored the guy’s fumbling attempts to act innocent and followed Kaelthorn. He was honestly a little excited about the whole thing.

Damon shrugged and accepted the royal treatment. "When in Rome..." He smiled and let out a big sigh, relaxing his shoulders completely.

Erin’s nimble fingers were quick to unbuckle the last of his armor straps, her movements smooth yet almost worshipful, as though undressing him was some sort of sacred ritual.

Damon allowed it, sinking into the role without guilt. He had earned this moment. The weight of his cloak and gear slid from his shoulders, leaving him lighter, freer, his body sighing with relief.

Steam from the blood bath coiled around him like a living thing, clinging to his skin, sinking into his senses. The heady, iron-rich fragrance made his veins stir. He stepped into the bath feeling the blood completely embrace him. His vampiric instincts roared awake.

It wasn’t just warmth that wrapped around him, it was power, raw, rich, intoxicating power. The essence of rare beasts carried mana that thrummed against his veins, each pulse stitching fatigue away, reforging muscle and spirit alike.

He tilted his head back against the edge of the bath, his crimson gaze half-lidded, savoring the rush. His skin prickled, his senses relaxed, and the tension coiled in his body unraveled.

A couple seconds later, he felt a warm and soft body hug him from behind.
